The Twitter account @WeirdMedieval offers a rare glimpse into the medieval art by collecting and posting everything from illuminated manuscripts to tapestries, mosaics and stained glass. The medieval period is known for its many art forms and its awkward executions: think of doodles of knights fighting snails, monks playing butt trumpets, or huge rabbits murdering people, so there’s no shortage of content to laugh at.
Medieval memes! And let me tell you of a tale that made my fizzog beam like a summer’s morn. ‘Twas of an event where a foolhardy lad put his finger into the mouth of his much younger sibling, little more than a babe in arms, and did cry aloud, let me tell you, with some consternation, that Charlie, had bitten his finger.
Useful creature is my favorite
“Cat Playing the Organ” = the original Keyboard Cat.
And I agree that Useful Creature is useful.
Cat playing bagpipes. Cat in heat in the middle of the night. Same sound.
apparently there was no shortage of medieval psychedelics
